Just had my house treated by terminix for ants couple days ago. How long til we really see results?

Question

Terminix guy says in 2 weeks ant should be all gone! We signed up for full year of treatments.(once a quarter)

Answer 1

You'd think you'd notice within a day.  I had big black ants everywhere in my kitchen.  Crawling all over the floor, the table, the sink.  I sprayed some stuff around the outside of the house on the bottom of the foundation and the top of the foundation that the house sits on and then in the cellar on the top of the foundation and I noticed the next day that there were only a few crawling around and that was 2 weeks ago and I just read this and realized that I haven't seen an ant since then.  Too bad you wasted the money on terminx and didn't just go to home depot where I went and bought some insect spray like I did.  It was called Real Kill, home insect control.  It was probably around 10 dollars for a gallon jug.  I bought it like 2 years ago.  Oh well, good luck.

Answer 2

depends on how it was actually treated and what was used...you will probably still see activity for a few days then it will taper to nothing
